[geeklog-devel] Plugin help --- Package Extractor

[Tony Bibbs]

Christian,

Yeah, I've gleamed that from some of the posts by Greg Beaver that I've found Googling.  At this point my issue is more political...people have to want to do it and I'm just pointing out the duplication of work.  I've got my sights on this very thing for the GL2 code that's going on.

Thanks, though, because while we may have known that it helps to inform other who might not have known.

It might be interesting for you that there are already existing PEAR web frontends, like PEAR_Frontend_Web. See http://tias.ulyssis.org/frontweb_demo/ for a demo and http://pear.php.net/package/PEAR_Frontend_Web for the package site and source code.

Geeklog could be implementing a minimal pear frontend, just displaying all packages installed from the geeklog channel and allowing to install new and uninstall existing ones.
